One Earth Carpet Cleaner and Rinse
BACKGROUND
One Earth™ Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is a general-purpose carpet cleaner for use
on water-cleanable carpets.
The product is quite versatile and can be used in multiple cleaning systems
including:
- Prespray
- Rinse Extraction
- Low moisture cleaning
One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is compatible with both portable and truck
mount extraction systems. The product includes water conditioning agents and
an alkaline builder; it leaves no sticky residues.
Because One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse generates no foam, the extraction
process is more efficient. Foam interferes with extraction, especially in
portable equipment. The product has zero volatile organic compounds and no
known allergens, so it is ideal for use around sensitive populations.
One Earth Carpet Cleaner & Rinse is certified by UL Environmental under the
EcoLogo soft surface 2795 standard as an environmentally preferable product.
It is safe for use on water-cleanable wool.
USE INSTRUCTIONS
PREPARATION OF READY-TO-USE (RTU) SOLUTION
Dilution instructions for prespray. For pressure sprayer application: Add 6
ounces of concentrate with enough water to make one gallon of ready-to-use
solution (47 mL/L). (20:1) Use cold tap water.
Dilution instructions for rinse agent: Add 2 ounces of concentrate with enough
cold water to make one gallon of ready-to-use solution (16 mL / L). (64:1).
Dilution instructions for low moisture cleaning processes: Add 2 ounces of
concentrate with enough water to make 1 gallon (64:1). Use cold water.
CLEANING PROCEDURES – EXTRACTION:
a. Preinspect / prequalify / pretreat spots as needed. Be sure to check for
the compatibility of the product with the carpet.
b. Post wet floor signs as needed. Vacuum the carpet thoroughly. The vacuuming
step is often overlooked because it is so labor-intensive. Proper vacuuming,
however, removes as much as 80% of dry, particulate soil. Vacuuming reduces
the probability of wicking during the drying process.
c. Apply RTU solution at the rate of 0.5 gallons per 100 square feet of
carpet. (2 L per 10 M 2 ). Avoid overspray on surfaces not being cleaned.
d. Allow adequate dwell time but do not allow the solution to dry on the
carpet. If the solution dries, extra time will be necessary to retreat the
carpet to dissolve the product residues as well as the soil.
e. For best results, use agitation to work the RTU solution into the carpet
fibers.
f. Rinse extract with 1:64 solution.
g. Groom the carpet to align fibers. This improves carpet appearance and
reduces drying time.
h. Use sufficient airflow to assure that the carpet will dry quickly. The
AirPath™ air mover is recommended because of its 360-degree high-velocity
airflow.
CLEANING PROCEDURES – LOW MOISTURE
Follow steps A and B as described above. Use 1:64 RTU solution for the liquid
portion of your low moisture system.
